There are a lot of users reporting WIFI disconnect/reconnect issues with the Galaxy S3 across all US variants and even the International version.

On my Bell SIII
The wifi intermittently disconnects all the time. This triggers frequently once any data request is made.
This happens both when connected either to a WPA2 Personal network OR an OPEN network.
Basically WiFi is useless.
Is anyone having a similar issue?
My screen is bigger than yours
not really. i know what you're referring to cuz I've seen it happen once or twice but i always assumed it was my router that was weak. in any case i have 5GB data with Telus for $55 with 500 Minutes and nationwide my10 and callerID which is more than i need...

No, this never happened to my S1.
Regardless of the size of your DATA plan, you still can't access your LAN without WiFI

oh you are still using isolated LAN from 90's?Originally Posted by klau1
VPN - virtual private network allows you to get access from your LAN securely from any IP given the right credentials. Wiki it up.

Is it easy to do?
I'm running Windows Server 2003 for my file and domain server (mostly so that everyone in the family has a unified login and file experience across our 4 computers)
But even if it were doable, you're still limited to your ISP upload speed which is going to be slower than WiFi N

Why should you need to VPN into your own LAN while onsite? Isn't that the point of having wireless?

i also had the same sort of issue on my GS3, but unfortunately i dnt remember the trick right now
Likes small screens
I too have this issue but it was able to connect to the open WiFi at the Virgin Mobile mall kiosk. They had some sort of SpeedTouch router/modem combo. As such, they told me to phone Customer Care (tech support department) and they'd help my setup my router properly (LOL yeah right!) otherwise I should take it to the store at Yonge-Dundas as they have a repair centre there.
As a workaround though, if you dial *#0011#, press the menu button, select WiFi, and then turn off WIFI Power Save Mode, it should connect fine and remain connected. The only issue though is that it'll likely make the display never sleep/timeout.
